Forever Waiting || Yoonmin

Chapter 53 - "my fate."

"...w-what?"

Yoongi sighs, rubbing his thumb over the back of my hand to calm me.

"It all started when I was seven..."

Flashback

"Appa! Chase me!" I giggle, running around my backyard while my father chases after me. I can hear faint chuckles coming from my mother as she places our drinks on the table before taking a seat.

"Honestly Yoongi, if you don't slow down you're gonna fall." My mom says while taking a sip of her drink.

I stop running, quickly hopping over to my mommy, "eomma! I'm really fast aren't I?"

Her lips break out into a wide smile while she clasps her hands over my cheeks, giving my head a slight shake as she coos at my cuteness.

"Of course you are baby."

My father joins us as we sip away at our drinks, enjoying the fresh summer air. My mommy chats away to my dad about how work was today and such. I play with my toy car, gliding it slowly over the surface while making car like engine noises with my mouth.

After a while my mommy stands, my dad follows, "come on Yoongi. We should get dinner started, how about you help eomma? Hmm?" My mom asks me, placing out her hand for me to take. I nod hastily, getting up from my chair to move around it and towards the door where my parents both stood waiting for me.

At that exact moment my sight starts to turn blotchy, black dots appearing randomly. My parents voices were now faint as I stumble around, trying to grab hold of the table but accidentally knock over a glass instead.

The last thing I remember was collapsing to the floor, my parents rushing to my side before everything goes black.

"Honey you need to calm down. Yoongi will be fine."

"A child doesn't just randomly faint and it's all fine! There's something wrong!"

I could hear my parents bickering over me, my eyes still glued shut but my hearing was starting to come around. I feel paralysed like none of my limps could move, I try to crack open one of my eyes.

I wanted my parents to know I was okay,

that I'm still alive.

That I was afraid.

My body felt warm as it was bundled up in something soft. With every ounce of strength in my body I manage to open both eyes adjusting to the blinding light above me. I blink a few times, wanting to shield my eyes away from the painful glare.

"Yoongi? Yoongi! Baby, it's eomma! Eomma's here sweetie." My mommy clings to my small arm while she frantically touches my face with her other. Her eyes searching between both of mines as she speaks.

"E-eomma?" My voice cracks, it sounds horsed and dehydrated.

My mom nods, small tears escaping her eyes while she purses her lips, "yes sweetie. Eomma is here. You don't have to be scared anymore."

She tries to hug me close to her body but stops when I scream out in agony, the shooting pains spread throughout my body when I make any drastic movements.

A nurse comes rushing in once she hears my yelps, my dad grabs ahold of my mom, pulling her away so that the nurse can attend to me.

"I suggest you do not touch him for the time being. His body is in shock and is highly sensitive to everything right now." The nice lady finally explains, turning away from me to catch gazes with my parents, specifically my mommy.
